Answer this question truthfully
### Question: How to prepare for Colposcopic biopsy?
### Response: There is no special preparation. You may be more comfortable if you empty your bladder and bowel before the procedure.
You should not douche, place any products into the vagina, or have sexual intercourse for 24 hours before the exam. You should not be menstruating heavily. However, if you are at the very end or beginning of your regular period or you are having abnormal bleeding, you should still keep your appointment.
You may be able to take ibuprofen or acetaminophen (Tylenol) before the colposcopy. Ask your doctor if this is okay, and when and how much you should take.
Tell your doctor before the test if you are pregnant or could be pregnant.
